You bet that now that I know there's a year stamped on blue mailboxes that I'll be looking at every single one I walk past.
USPS blue mailboxes are stamped with year of manufacture. This is one of the oldest ones I've seen in a while. I am lots of fun at parties.

Terrible ad for gaming. Could add a five second voiceover at the end and making an AMAZING ad for Zoloft, though.

It's kinda like if you were born intuitively feeling like the A button should be on the right, X should be up, B down, etc. but life hands you an Xbox controller and everyone gets super weird the moment you ask about button remapping.

Yes, yes, "they would not fucking say that", but consider: "huge fucking dumbass randomly displays inexplicably deep insight on some pertinent, narrowly defined topic while remaining in every other respect a huge fucking dumbass" is never not funny.

HOLY SHIT. They found the genes for fibromyalgia - and it's *not* autoimmune, it's the central nervous system. It's very cool to see some progress made on the thing that's ruined my life since late teenage years!
Medical Republic: 'Fibromyalgia finally gets a genetic fingerprint'
'Additionally, certain risk loci overlapped with long covid (BPTF) and ME/CFS (OLFM4, RABGAP1L/GPR52), two poorly characterised disorders, albeit with different lead variants.'

California-Kirkbride. California Ave. Caller says a bunch of local kids must have gotten into a worksite and got a bunch of metal pipes. The kids are currently chasing each other in the parking lot with the pipes, piping each other. Phrasing.

I cannot stress that the work that people have been doing for years in the southeast is paying off and needs to be celebrated.

“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡
Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro says 'I'd rather die' than use generative AI
Del Toro's new Frankenstein adaption reimagines Mary Shelley's 1818 Gothic novel. Frankenstein was like a tech bro: "creating something without considering the consequences," he explains.

At first glance I misinterpreted the things hanging down from the sauce bottles and had already formulated the pun by the time I realised my mistake, so here it is anyway: CONDOMENTS
I have been traveling and today I present to you...the thing I saw in the Frankfurt airport.
Is it efficient? Undeniably. Does it probably work better than the normal way? Oh certainly. Produce less of a mess? Probably?
But the existence of Condiment Udders gives me a deep, aghast disquiet.
